New breakthrough to help in fight against ‘aggressive’ breast cancer

Researchers have reported a discovery that they hope would lead to the development of a powerful new way of treating an aggressive form of breast cancer. The breast cancer sub-type in question is commonly called “HER2-positive”; it’s a subset of the disease affecting about one patient in four, in which tumor cells over express signaling protein called HER2. The blockbuster drug Herceptin is a treatment of choice for many women with HER2-positive breast cancer, but in most cases, resistance to the treatment develops within several years. The prognosis for HER2-positive breast cancer patients is worse than for those with other sub types of the illness. A multi-institution team led by CSHL Professor Nicholas Tonks reported that it has found a means of inhibiting another protein, called PTP1B, whose expression is also upregulated in HER2-positive breast cancer.
